This two-disc set of Bering Sea Gold will present gold mining as you've never seen it before, with the treasure hidden deep in the bottom of the sea. You'll meet the vastly different crew members - from gold-mining veterans to childhood friends to the rookie captain and the social worker who left a desk job in search of gold. The miners will all face the same hardships as mining on land - close quarters, mishandled machinery, bad luck, and short tempers - with the additional dangers of working underwater at the mercy of the fickle sea. These eight episodes will venture out in search of the sparkle at the bottom of the sea, while exposing the reality of the true price of gold.

This group of people do the things that we all wish we had the time, money, experience and guts to do. Their season is limited so they only have just so much time to dredge their gold and make their money. They put all they have into it, investing everything - so they can either win big or lose it all.The exhilaration, the disappointments, the struggles and the conflicts,,, this series, along with the winter series 'Bering Sea Gold: Under the Ice' is very addicting and keeps me coming back for more every week.

People at the edge of the habitable earth. 1 in 100 placer miners are successful so there are always knuckleheads and DRAMA. Some emerge as heroes, some are driven to the edge. Making a lot of money? Cheap to produce TV, the American Dream.
